A Critique of the LC-MS document, “Women and Military Service: A Lutheran Perspective”

Last updated on: April 6, 2018 at 6:14 am By nathanrinne

+++ Post by Nathan Rinne Should women serve in combat roles in the military? In our country, a definitive answer was given not even 3 years ago. Around that time, Chronicles magazine article editor Aaron Wolf wrote: “December 3 [2015 was] the day Secretary of Defense Ash Carter declared an end to the restriction on women in combat. According to the secretary, every branch of the Armed Forces must lift all restrictions on what women are allowed to do. He... Read more

No, 1 Corinthians 1:14 Does not Prove that Baptism is Purely Symbolic

Last updated on: March 30, 2018 at 10:23 am By Jordan Cooper

I just came across an article posted on the 9Marks blog titled, “Waters that Unite: Five Truths About Water Baptism” (you can find it here). The article itself is pretty standard from a Baptist or non-denominational evangelical approach, arguing that baptism must follow faith, that it is a public profession, etc. The reason why I decided to respond to this article is because of the argument made in the second of these points, because it is exemplary of a broader...

Sex and America’s Political Conscience: Seared, Hardened, and “Woke” All at the Same Time (part II of II)

Last updated on: March 19, 2018 at 7:04 am By nathanrinne

+++ Post by Nathan Rinne So, per the last post in this series, there are all kinds of amazing connections with sex and Christianity. It makes sense of course because it was God’s idea. And, as we know, sexual desire and sexuality can also be highly disconcerting subjects. We might, for example, be certain that we should join Marxist philosopher Slavoj Zizek in appearing to casually dismiss the Canadian psychologist Jordan Peterson for suggesting that “’radical feminists’ don’t speak out...

Sex and America’s Political Conscience: Seared, Hardened, and “Woke” All at the Same Time (part I of II)

Last updated on: March 19, 2018 at 6:32 am By nathanrinne

+++ Post by Nathan Rinne You want to get to the sex stuff and political stuff? Let’s start with something far more important: Christ’s Church, the Chosen Bride of the King (see what I did there?). For me, as a traditional Christian, “politics is downstream from culture,” and culture, derived from the Latin cultus, means “care, cultivation, worship,” which relates to religious faith. This, in turn, brings me to the Church and its responsibility for educating and disciplining the people... Read more
